Just got off chat with HP support people about my orders that "were unable to be processed." Supposedly they did go through and I will get them on August 28th or there abouts. Somehow I don't believe the guy and I would wager he was just giving me the standard song and dance.

Maybe they said "unable to be processed" so people would stop asking so they would have time to ship the orders.

NCIX Pricematching Update~
OK I got a call back and they don't know how much stock they have at this time or what price they are paying. The didn't tell me to cancel my order, basically I was told if your price match comes back accepted then you will be getting one.
Ultimately their purchasing team needs confirmation from HP about their stock and price. I assume HP was managing their stock but with the confusion surrounding it they can't tell you yes if they can't confirm they can get them.
I was also told about this "official announcement" that is supposed to be made on the forums there in the near future. I just hope it's before the weekend.

My own opinion on the matter now~
NCIX has some decent buying power in the market and probably has a certain amount set aside for them but when and how it is going to be dealt with is anyone's guess at them moment because customers have no idea a) of the total volume actually in queue that was placed prior to them removing the item, sorting through tens of thousands or hundreds?
and b) if they will be reimbursed for the difference because this isn't your typical price match and there is plenty to be lost.

Ultimately I think if they can secure a certain amount they will be selling them for the lower prices.

I at least got this much from it all though, DON"T CANCEL YOUR ORDERS.
